Originally posted by Mikhnienko View PostThree per year including the return nominees? If so that's a futile format, with over a century of history and the sheer quantity of HOF worthy boxers it will take 20, 30, 40 years for very deserving guys to get in. Their accomplishments and legacy are set with 60, 70, 80 years already passed no need to prolong their recognition.

A lot of those names I thought were already in.
It's a sad state of affairs that the likes of Kingpetch, Overlin and Archer aren't in the HOF already.
Where is Booker? Not even on the list of candidates?
Calzaghe is obviously going to get in, he really shouldn't though over some of those names there.

And you are not the first wondering where the hell Eddie Booker is on ballot. Again, time to redraw the line for what Modern is for voters IMO.
